“Ashley gave us peace of mind as we traveled home for the holidays. She took care of our very moody cat, as well as taking care of our home and bringing in our packages while we were away. She also communicated with us and gave updates after each visit. We highly recommend Ashley!”

“William was a wonderful sitter for Harley our cat. He was so attentive, professional and very caring. Harley loved hanging out with him and getting so many pets.”
“So quick to respond when I had an issue with my litter robot and showing up last minute to help my kitties out. Definitely booking again and highly recommend to anyone needing help with their fur babies! Thank you Sanjana!”

“Sierra did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. We got lots of pictures of him playing and getting treats and pets. I will definitely be booking with Sierra again!”

“Arantxa did awesome with shadow. Was nervous as it was my first time using rover and have a dog with anxiety but had zero issues! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely recommend”

“Claire did an excellent job taking care of my cat! She was extremely communicative, friendly, and showed so much love to my pet! When I came home, the litter box was perfectly cleaned and my cat was calm and happy! Highly recommend her for cat care :)”
About: I bring over a year and a half of professional experience working with cats, handling everything from daily care routines to administering a variety of medications and basic medical support. I also have six months of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from energetic puppies to large breeds like Mastiffs, and am comfortable meeting the needs of pets with different personalities and care requirements. I work full-time at an animal shelter, so providing attentive, compassionate care for animals is part of my daily routine. My early morning schedule allows me to spend the second half of my day focusing on giving your pets plenty of attention, care, and love. I share my home with a kitty who means the absolute world to me. He’s the sweetest boy and is always waiting at the door for cuddles the moment I get home. I make sure to keep life fun and enriching for him every day, whether that’s a long play session, brushing (his favorite) or a special treat. Because of how much I care for my own pet and pets at work, I understand how important it is to give animals the love, attention, and patience they deserve, and I’m confident I can provide that same level of care for your pets.

About: I've always grown up around dogs since I had two family dogs and my mom does dog sitting as a side job. I helped her a lot in high school so I have a lot of experience with this work. I love dogs and would love to take care of yours! I'm currently a college student at UT, I don't have anything going on in the summer so I'm mostly free anytime. I have a lot of time on my hands so I'll make sure to take good care of your pets When I enter other people's homes for pet care work, I make sure to leave the area clean and tidy. Always make sure the doors are locked and the pets are safe
“Kim is always there for our kitty when we are away, and she also looks after our home - incoming packages, watering plants, etc - which is so thoughtful! Thank you so so much Kim!”

About: I’ve had dogs as part of my family my entire life and currently have a 5-year-old Goldendoodle of my own, so daily walks, routines, and lots of love are second nature to me. Being a dog mom means I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. Safety is always my top priority. Whether we’re out on a walk or I’m visiting your home, I’m attentive, aware of our surroundings, and committed to making sure your dog feels secure and comfortable at all times. I carefully follow instructions and keep routines consistent so your dog feels at ease. More than anything, I want your dog to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home as a freelance Art Director, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, and afternoon walks and drop in visits, and spending part of my day walking and caring for dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m new to Austin and excited to explore different neighborhoods on walks with your pup while keeping them active and happy. I know how much trust it takes to have someone care for your dog and enter your home. I’m attentive about securing doors, gates, and leashes, and I’m always aware of our surroundings on walks. I follow your dog’s routine closely so they feel comfortable and at ease, and I treat your home with the same care and respect as my own.
“Natalie has checked on my dogs a few times now. She is consistently reliable, has great communication, and is responsive to my dogs' needs. I would definitely recommend her services!”

“Valerie is amazing! She makes going out of town completely stress-free. We always reach out to her when we travel because we know our pet is in the best hands—cared for, loved, and safe. So grateful for her!”


About: Hi I’m Kelsey! I’d love to help you with your pet(s)! I’ve been pet sitting for years and have client testimonials I’d be happy to provide you with. Your pet will be in good hands! I will go above and beyond to truly spend time entertaining your pet and brightening their day while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including reactive dogs. I absolutely love spending time with animals and will truly treat your pet like my own. Speaking of my own, I have a boxer who is the absolute light of my life. I love him so much and spoil him rotten. I’ll treat your pet the same! Something you should know about me…When I walk into a house or business with a pet present that’s the first thing I’m paying attention to regardless of why I’m there. I work from home and love going on walks every day. I’d love to take your dog(s) with me on my next walk! Or if you need someone to stop by mid-day because you’re stuck in the office and just want someone to spend some time with your pet I can do that too. I’ll bring my computer with me! Did you think I forgot about cats? Never! I’d love to check in on your cat for you while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to visit your pet soon! I work remotely full time. I’m available most of the day for drop in visits and walks! I can come over in the morning for early morning walks before it gets too hot. I can come over mid-day for a lunch break walk or drop in visit. I can come in the evenings if you have somewhere to be after work and need peace of mind that your pet will be well taken care of. I will take extra care of your pets in your home. I’ll ensure they have everything they need and extra attention while you’re away. I love a good couch cuddle moment with your pet, walks of any distance or length, and am happy to interact with them using whatever toys or things they may have to use or play with. Mental stimulation is very important for pets, especially while you’re away to help their minds and bodies relax. I can use puzzle games, slow feeders, lick mats, or any other things you have for your pet to give them mental stimulation. I take great pride in leaving a place better than I found it and I’ll be respectful of you, your pet, and your home while I’m visiting.
“Keyra dropped on with my cat for two weeks and was incredible! My cat loves her and I felt so at ease knowing a person with love on their heart for cats was watching my baby!”

“Sofia is great! Miso is a shy guy but he comes out to say hi to Sofia when she visits. She is super communicative and sends great updates. Miso is a troublemaker and sometimes messes with his feeder and Sofia is great about clean up and straightening things!”

Chestnut pet parents share their Rover experiences
Michael was excellent with my dog, Kingston. Every time Michael showed up, Kingston was super excited to see him. He administered insulin shots 2x a day and was very careful and professional. It’s hard to find good care for my special needs senior pet but I will happily book Michael in the future! I also have a cat that Michael wasn’t there to care for and he still gave him lots of love. True animal lover!

Alyx was wonderful with Hex! She did drop-in visits and handled everything perfectly: keeping the litter clean, making sure he was fed, and clearly taking the time to make him feel at ease. Hex is my world, so it means a lot that he was totally comfortable with her. She also sent the cutest photos, which honestly made my day every time. Super responsive and reliable throughout. Would absolutely book again, highly recommend her!

Sydney is the best! I appreciated her stopping by ahead of my trip to meet Sasha & get acclimated with her space/routine. Sasha took to her immediately :) strong communication & a clear love for animals. So appreciate you, Sydney! Thank you for helping me & Sasha out in a pinch!
